starv - Crunch Time (techno, house, or something. work in progress)
Another half-assed track that's "semi-done". Just looking for technical feedback from a production standpoint. Done on Ableton with some VSTs + samples.
I know it doesn't really have a reasonable "build point", and it also needs some more mixing and automation. Still working on learning all of this writing music jank.
Thanks!

You're going all Scuba, aren't you
But great stuff. I genuinly like this, which is not something I can say about most amateur productions I hear. You have a certain idiosyncrasy that's incredibly rare among amateuer producers. Most people just make mediocre carbon copies of tried formulas (see: the production forum)
As usual I am no help for technical shit but I think you should change the drum pattern before 1:00. After that it's great (who doesn't love claps?). Also, I'd try a different melody after 2:00 (or none at all?)
Thank you, man, I really appreciate it. I don't really have anyone outside of the internet to talk to about this stuff, so I generally do stuff like this within a sort of vacuum. Which may be a good or bad thing, I dunno.
